We are just about there now and cannot wait for the PCI!!! There are some big defects I have found that I am not looking forward to dealing with in 2 weeks as I feel as though they might be an uphill battle. Enjoy the photo spam.

It certainly looks great on the inside. What do you mean by big defects? That sounds a bit scary. Re: Coral Homes Noosa 23 - Ormeau Hills: PCI March 8th 486Feb 23, 2018 9:23 am what are the defects??? Re: Coral Homes Noosa 23 - Ormeau Hills: PCI March 8th 487Feb 23, 2018 9:24 am bestspecials Looks lovely. It certainly looks great on the inside. What do you mean by big defects? That sounds a bit scary. The biggest one is probably wanting the kitchen bench tops all replaced... They made a mistake with the edging and I thought they replaced it all but when I look yesterday they were removed, re sanded and reinstalled, exactly what I didn't want... They also have a massive chip at the join on the waterfalls . Quite a couple of issues with mortar in the brickwork around the house. The remaining stuff is mainly paintwork, some electrical stuff we paid for hasn't been installed, damage to some gutters. All fairly simple fixes but I reckon the bench tops are going to be met with resistance. Re: Coral Homes Noosa 23 - Ormeau Hills: PCI March 8th 488Feb 23, 2018 9:32 am That's not good with the bench top, especially now that it is chipped too. They will definitely have to replace it. We have our colour appointment on 7 March and I wouldn't even have any idea what type of edging I want on my benchtop (we are having waterfall too). Hope everything is sorted quickly.

Hope everything is sorted quickly. If this helps, here is the difference between pencil edging and Flat arris edging. We went with pencil edge but they have honestly butchered the edge works it looks pretty rough....

I really hope the issues are taken care of quickly!! Thats what im worried about, i was hoping to bring issues to our SS attention early, so it would get taken care of before PCI and then handover wont be delayed for longer than it needs to be, but apparently thats not how things work and issues should only be addressed on day of PCI... i hope you still feel excited though, i hope your probs will be sorted asap so you can move in and enjoy your new home Re: Coral Homes Noosa 23 - Ormeau Hills: PCI March 8th 492Feb 23, 2018 10:14 am I really love the dark walls in the media room, I am really keen on doing that to ours. Re: Coral Homes Noosa 23 - Ormeau Hills: PCI March 8th 493Feb 23, 2018 10:14 am Thanks everyone, definitely still excited!! Falling in love with this house already, so happy with how it's all come together. Luckily all of the issues can be corrected it just comes down to how Coral wants to handle it! Most of the house has been great but there are some areas where the workmanship is a bit slack. Re: Coral Homes Noosa 23 - Ormeau Hills: PCI March 8th 494Feb 23, 2018 10:31 am Your home looks beautiful. Congratulations.

Did they end up running the flooring up the island like you wanted? I'm sure the faults will be fixed, fingers crossed about the island. It's a shame, but it was their stuff up, not yours, so you don't want something that isn't done correctly, i would have no idea how to check for weak spots after something like that :S but the house is looking so lovely! Can't believe how quickly it has come together Re: Coral Homes Noosa 23 - Ormeau Hills: PCI March 8th 497Feb 23, 2018 3:12 pm CC7 beautiful!

Can't believe how quickly it has come together Thank youu!!! We actually decided against it for now... Love the look of everything as is and worry that timber up the face of the bench might be too much timber, they have left extra planks so we can always do it in the future . 2 weeks till PCI, so excited.

A question about your Media/Lounge. Are two of the plates on the wall for passing cables uninterrupted from top to bottom? Was this arranged at the electrical appointment and if so how much? Also, with the high powerpoints did they offer the option of recessed powerpoints? Re: Coral Homes Noosa 23 - Ormeau Hills: PCI March 8th 500Feb 23, 2018 4:12 pm mpricecs Great Photos. A question about your Media/Lounge. Are two of the plates on the wall for passing cables uninterrupted from top to bottom? Was this arranged at the electrical appointment and if so how much? Also, with the high powerpoints did they offer the option of recessed powerpoints? Thank you! That is correct, they are called a bullnose/cable entry plate and yes it was arranged at the electrical appointment. Each one cost about $60 which is stupidly expensive considering you can buy and install them yourself at $20 each... They didn't offer any recessed power points but I will be covering all the power points with the TV's anyway so it didn't both me You should pressure clean your roof first and make sure the paint you buy also is anti mould. 4 17655 Ask the council if there is a chance of getting build over easement exemption. Sometimes easements are unused and 24cm is not all that much. Good luck. And yes any builder… 2 13745 In Qld it is a requirement that a builder must have a cost breakdown, for building a home to the same specification, with the same inclusions and the same finish.
